It does not appear to pose any transport-related danger, except perhaps that a reviewer's head aches over the number of RFCs that are needed to get media bits from point A to point B, but this is not a fault of the draft.  The draft is broadly ready for publication as a PS, however there are a few issues for the Transport Area.

There are two highly relevant congestion control documents that are approved (or nearly so), and I can't see that the  RTCWB WG considered them from my quick review of mailing list discussions, but it would be a good idea for this draft to call them out:

rtcweb-transport says 
"For transport of media, secure RTP is used.  The details of the profile of RTP used are described in "RTP Usage“ [I-D.ietf-rtcweb-rtp-usage]."

Given that this doc is called "Transports for WebRTC“, I would appreciate if it says slightly more about the recommendations given in rtcweb-rtp-usage, especialy regarding congestion control.

What’s about the following?

"For transport of media, secure RTP is used.  The details of the profile of RTP used are described in "RTP Usage“ [I-D.ietf-rtcweb-rtp-usage], which mandates the use of a circuit breaker [draft-ietf-avtcore-rtp-circuit-breakers-17] and congestion control (see [draft-ietf-rmcat-cc-requirements-09] for further guidance).“

I think it would be better if the rmcat draft referenced rtcweb-transpoarts, and if rtcweb-transports would check on its alignment with the rmcat requirements in the congestion control remarks in section 4.1.
